    so I was having a mental breakdown and did this on a whim...I’ve never had a good relationship with my hair so I thought screw it. I followed this tutorial and omg my hair actually turned out so much better than I expected! Sure it’s not perfect but you can’t really tell. I feel so much better and don’t regret this at all. Thank you so much for the video! ~

People often compliment my hair but I am not exactly the attractive type. I feel exhausted of all the things this world has to offer and now I don't think anything matters at all. So I am just gonna chop them off.

      but my point is we all were having a bad day and decided to cut our own hair lol i hope everything will turns good for all of you!

      Thanks! I like to do it with dry since my hair is very kinky at the roots and I have a cowlick, so I find that if I wet it when it dries it ends up all different length. My old hair dresser cut my hair dry too, but if it suits your hair type wetting your hair would be easier! - Tara :)

So far I’m super pleased and I think it looks great!! I can’t believe you gave me the guts to do it myself since I can’t afford an appointment right now and I was sick of the split ends and upkeep! I’ll update you when I’m done! Thank you!!! ❤

    @Fefegalvez 5 лет назад +18

    You are soo cute! I am a mom of two boys, it’s hard to get in the salon for myself! So I often get frustrated and bust out my haircutting scissors and give myself a trim (bob as well 😉). My best tip is to leave it a bit longer than you’d like in case you royally mess up and need a professional to fix it 😅. I currently cut both my boys’ hair, but cutting my own hair is more challenging. I do find the blunt bob cut pretty straightforward and adding some upward texture does help make it more forgiving. You look lovely w short hair ♥️

    After watching I will probably attempt this - I've been cutting my own bangs for years, but I've never taken the leap and did the whole head. Any tips on getting the back even with the front? Yours looks great! You make it look easy...

    • @EllenandTara
      @EllenandTara  7 лет назад

      I used two mirrors to look at the back (one behind the head and another to see that mirror). Recently I also got Ellen to take a photo so I could see if it was even. - Tara :)

    That animation was so cute! How did you make it?
    I usually cut my own hair too (a standard cut in Sydney is $120...) but I cut it all in one go. I'm not going quite as short as you though-
    And at the moment, am growing mine out for the wedding 👰🏻

    • @EllenandTara
      @EllenandTara  8 лет назад +3

    Imagine "did a full 180°" audio playing on loop as you read my comment
    "I want to cut my hair short"
    "I'm too shy to tell my mom"
    "I'll just do it in secret"
    "But how will she react?"
    "But what is the worst thing she could do to me, it's not like it's illegal"
    "What if i do it wrong?"
    "I live only once"
    "But what if i regret it?"
    "I'm just gonna watch videos to do it right"
    "But I'm scared. I'll just leave it."
    *back to the first sentence, read over and over again until you understand my dilema*
    Okay i told my mom and she completely hates the idea. I lied to her that i wanted the shoulder lenght and she was shocked. She said ok but was still horrified and what would she do if i told her i want it to be like Grace VanderWaal's hair in City song. Someone kill me pls

    • @hannajames2181
      @hannajames2181 4 года назад +1

      This is a late response, but, if you cut it unevenly, you can get it fixed. Hair grows back and I'm sure you would look *amazing* with Graces VanderWaal's haircut in city song! Those are my haircut goals too haha. It makes me sad when parents are so controlling over their children's hair and bodies. It's your hair and you can do what you want with it! That being said, I don't know your specific situation so do what you need to do to stay safe at home and remember you won't live under her roof forever

    Congrats on a short informative video that gets straight to the point. I was hoping to find tips on cutting your own hair in videos that weren't too long, and this is definitely beyond my expectations. Tried it, and I am really happy with the result! :) I had never cut my own hair and of course I made a few mistakes but practice makes perfect, right? Besides money, saves a lot of time and it's also a lot of fun!

    I hate going to a stylist because I'm growing my hair out from pixie length and every time I try to get someone to even it out they cut it too short. I literally just followed the instructions from this video after watching it and my hair looks salon quality. I love it! Now I have cute little chin length bob. Forever cutting my own hair from now on.
